SPACEWALK YOUR SENSES THROUGH SOUND

Suddenly you’re in space. Filled with dimensionality and presence, punctuated by glimmering illumination like the night sky.

But unlike outer space, it’s filled with vivid sound, rich in tonality and ready to take your senses on a marvelous journey.

Experience sonic and spatial freedom with Clarion’s new “space design”

01 Intuitive Design and H.M.I.

FZ709 simplify operation so that now it is just a matter of touching a few iconized illuminated capacitive sensor buttons. This is an example of the intuitive H.M.I. design that minimizes the number of buttons while maximizing functionality. Since only relevant button icons appear for the task at hand, button-hunting is eliminated and access is more direct and responsive.

02 Unique Concept for Cutting-Edge Style

FZ709 are a crystallization of some of the most advanced technologies in car entertainment today. The screen uses an OEL (Organic Electro-luminescence) display to deliver images smooth as silk while saving space. Combined with advanced design, this technology is one of the ways that Clarion is taking car entertainment to the next generation.
